Christchurch, Jan. 9,1879, 6379-81 ENLARGEMENT OP THE LYTTELTON TIMES. THE history of the Lyttelton Times is a curiously exact counterpart of the history of the district it represents. Commencing from very small beginnings, the rapid and continuous growth of Canterbury can be traced almost exactly by the repeated enlargements of the Journal which owes its birth to the founders of the Province. As population and wealth grew in the district, the Lyttelton Times kept pace with that growth; but the exceptionally rapid increase of settlement during the past two years has almost outpaced the efforts of the Proprietors. In spite of the last and greatest enlargement, wont of space has repeatedly been pleaded as an excuse for the omission, curtailment, or postponement of important news, interesting reports, or valuable correspondence. To obviate this difficulty, and do justice to the wants of a public that has always liberally supported their Journal, the Proprietors intend from this day to permanently enlarge the Lyttelton Times by making it a daily eight-paged paper—the largest morning journal in New Zealand. By this means they hope to fully requirements of their readers. By avoiding the objectionable feature of supplements, room, will henceforth be found in the body of the paper for all the advertisements which may be entrusted to its widely • circulated columns. Christchurch, Jan. 4,1879.
